Decided to make this into a real portrait after all--put in a background, some highlights (people with dark monitors couldn't really see the features), refine the hair some. Hope the new version is better--I like it more, at any rate.
As ever, thank you for viewing.
EDIT: Sorry, I keep re-uploading this one--but I keep finding flaws with it; the eyes needed more work, and I had failed to have his chin cast a shadow to his neck. This was the last update, I promise
I like his facial structure and the full lips. He's got that slightly feminine look to him but not overly so (perfect for an Elven race imo). His eyebrows really take the cake though, they are perfectly done and look very realistic.
Great job!

*sighs deeply* Just how long can a person stare at one picture??? I like those lips, too. *waves at DD* And the eyes...reminds me of blood, very fitting. I also think the ears are utter perfection. And..okay..all of it!!
This seems to me a younger Zaknafein than I picture in my mind during the "Homeland" time period. I always pictured his cheeks more sunken and his face somehow more ravaged from all his internal turmoil (and messier hair, lol). Which is actually, probably very 'human' of me, heh.
I'm so glad you did it!! I hope you decide to follow up with the full-sized portrait. We'll all be waiting!
